Iron Giant Bolt

There are versions of this on Thingiverse but I wanted to make my own. This one is done from scratch in Tinkercad. I had to write a shape generator for the threads so I got a little bonus learning. Throw a little paint on it and it turned out fairly nice. Tinkercad's sphere model is kind of low resolution so I suppose I'll have to learn some other cad tool.

The bolt top is hollow and has room for a coin cell battery, a small pcb, and a blue led.
